Parent Child Class
Our parent-child class offers a relaxed way to introduce you and your young child to the nurturing and rich developmental approach to Waldorf education and philosophy.
We welcome children 1 to 3 years and their parents/caregivers to come and enjoy a home-like environment while exploring the world through movement, play and songs.
Our class consists of circle time, puppet play, plenty of free play for the children, while the parents/caregivers will learn about Waldorf philosophy to support them on their parenting journey. We will work on small projects, such as bread making, painting or preparing a delicious snack together. During the 8 weeks we will explore the topics of Rhythm, Imitation, Nourishment & Sleep, Family Culture and more. Additionally participants will receive a weekly newsletter with reading materials, book recommendations, ideas for play, recipes and other helpful sources of inspiration for life at home.
